El Paso: Las Vegas also lost last night, so the Chihuahuas remain 1.0 game up in the PCL Pacific Southern Division with 18 games to play ... Robert Stock returned from rehab and gave up 2 runs in an inning, including a walk and a HR ... Eleven players have hit 10+ HRs for El Paso ... The Chihuahuas now own the PCL HR record at 233. They have surrendered 197 home runs.

Amarillo: Even with the loss, Amarillo maintained its 4.0 lead over Corpus Christie in the Texas League South with 18 games to play ... Edward Olivares is still 5th in the league in hitting (.292) despite his August slump. He is not striking out much, and his BABIP is under .200 for August, so there's been some bad luck ... Owen Miller broke a 5-for-34 streak with two hits last night.

Lake Elsinore: The Storm remain 2.0 games behind Rancho Cucamonga in the Cal League South with 18 games to play ... Joey Cantillo makes his second start tonight at Stockton ... Javy Guerra has given up only one run in his last 10 outings (10.0IP) with 11Ks and only 2BB. His conversion to pitching is going better than expected and certainly better than most conversions ... SP Thomas Cosgrove should be returning to the Storm within the next few days.

Ft. Wayne: Reliever Jose Quezada was roughed up for the second straight game last night. His ERA has risen from 2.12 to 3.65.

Tri City: With 18 pitchers on the roster some don't pitch very often. LHP Dan Dallas has the best numbers on the staff (1-0 1.40), but has pitched only twice in August. Dallas is the fastest working pitcher in all of baseball. It often seems as if he's playing catch as he immediately set after getting the ball back from the catcher.

El Paso: The brief road trip to Salt Lake ends today. The Chihuahuas begin an 11-game home stand tomorrow vs. Fresno ... Newly promoted Dan Dallas and Tom Colletti arrived on time for the game last night but did not pitch. Dallas (21) is now the youngest player on the EP roster.

Amarillo: The Sod Poodles showed their support for pitcher Lake Bachar's family last night with their #Bacharstrong event. Bachar's father, David, has had a prolonged battle with cancer (32 chemo treatments) and the Sod Poodles promoted the game as a fundraiser as well as community support. Of course, it was a sellout.

Lake Elsinore: Gabriel Arias now ranks T3rd in the Cal League in hitting at .306.
